Community Service Opportunities

November 7th Voter Monitoring Volunteering

Hey APALSA, a big election is coming up soon, and a great opportunity to help make sure the voting rights of our fellow Americans are safeguarded. Basically, we will be polling voters to see that the proper language materials and other necessary measures for voting are available for those who might speak English as a second language. The details about the training session and polling location need to be ironed out, but are largely dependant on how many volunteers we get. So, if you are interested please let us know SOON!

Email anthony.nguyen.3@bc.edu and he will send you a volunteer form if you are interested in
volunteering. Either print out a form and hand it to any APALSA officer, or feel free to complete
it electronically, and email it back to Anthony.

October 11-13, 2006 - VOTER REGISTRATION DRIVE - 12:30 to 2:00 Cafeteria
On November 7, 2006, Massachusetts gubernatorial election will be held. Many of us will begin and establish our legal careers in Boston and will be directly affected by the actions taken by the
governor who wins this election. Furthermore, too many of us do not vote because there are no accessible means to actually register ourselves to vote. LALSA will be holding a voter registration drive October 11-13 in the Cafeteria. We will sit in the Caf with registration forms and encourage students passing by to register. They fill out the form and we will then send those forms to their respective city/town halls to complete the official registration process.
